It's Not Against Muslims in General

I can understand why, from reading the comments here, that you would think a large number of us are Muslim-haters. However, at least in my case, you are mistaken. What I am against are people using their religion as an excuse, explanation, or justification for doing something bad to another human being. I read today that Muhammad thought deceit between spouses was acceptable. Really? There are plenty of things that so-called Christians do in the name of their religion that I don't agree with either. It seems to be a common theme that people use whatever about their religion suits them at any given moment. I don't care what country you are from, evil is evil, and there is no religious justification. Of course, this is only my opinion, and I can't speak for anyone else.
